“I didn't have time to write a short letter, so I wrote a long one instead.”

That quote is a good indicator of what the quality of the average quick insta-message will be.
Who in his right mind would conduct meaningful conversations in such manner... no wonder that even plain email ends up so many times misunderstood, even if I pack it with smiling emojis, there's a good chance that the other party attribute this to cynicysm (or vice versa).
